My field of research is Systems Neuroscience, and my primary interests are in investigating the neural basis of cognition and behavior. I am especially interested in learning and memory-guided decision making. Currently, a major focus of my lab is studying the interactions of the hippocampus with pre-frontal cortex. Please see my Research page for more information on my current research. For my post-doctoral work in Loren Frank's lab at UCSF, I studied how memories are stored and represented in the hippocampus. For my graduate work, I studied sensory coding and plasticity in the rat vibrissa system in Dan Feldman's lab at UCSD and later at UC Berkeley. Specifically, I investigated representation of sensory stimuli and mechanisms of plasticity in the somatosensory system using a combination of behavioral, electrophysiological and computational techniques.
